Jazz Singer, Writer, Radio Host & Producer

Over the years I’ve had a career as an actor, as a writer. I wrote books for many years. I’ve been singer, singer, songwriter, radio host… When I look at the whole drawing on the napkin, and I tried to ask myself–What unifies all of these things? And it came down to songs. Songs really are at the heart of all of these pursuits. Something about songs really matters to me. In the same people believe in Jesus Christ, and they can’t really get through the day without connecting with that figure. That’s how I am about songs. They are the fuel for me.

Writer
In the course of writing a novel I will sometimes lock myself away. During most of my previous novels there comes a point where I just go to the country and hide for 5 or 6 weeks. Sometimes it’s the first draft, sometimes it’s the second. There are periods when I feel like you just have to cut out the world and listen to the voice in your own head.
